    Also note the claimed fuel consumption is 8.0/L instead of the "Opel" model being 8.1

    Sure, we dont have to worry about viking raids or scurvy anymore, but instead we make a daily routine of sitting in flimsy, fibreglass (or metal) boxes full of gasoline which are propelled in opposing directions on the freeway at velocities matching that of low flying aircraft.

    This is a roundabout way of saying that cars are dangerous....

    I think us Opel owners will be stuck with old sat Nav maps because it sounds like a different system been the mylink, maybe if we hassel them enough we will be able to get the mylink retro fitted at cost or something.

    i wouldn't mind to pay a bit either to get a new system with more updated maps. So who's going to give the guy a call that used to work at Opel but now works at Holden ?

    There's another guy who worked at Opel, I spoke to him on the phone before and his name was on some of the letters sent, also had some email correspondence before they blocked me, think he worked at customer service or something. He now works at Holden hq.

    From what I'm reading the current VXR is exactly the same as the OPC when Opel was in Australia. Just with lion badges and much sharper pricing!
